Additionally, he has a poll at the bottom right on his homepage. It asks if you think humans can change the climate. At this time, the score is only 7 points ahead for those of us who know puny humans cannot change the climate.

So should these guys that took his pay offs!!
“Charlie’s “angels” on the committee include Congressmen Ben Chandler of Kentucky, G.K. Butterfield of North Carolina and Peter Welch of Vermont. All have received donations from Rangel.”
